Business sponsorship

Sponsoring the Wirksworth Festival is a fantastic way for your business to raise its profile. Around 10,000 people attend events at the Festival each year and we reach even more people through both our on and offline communications throughout the year. And with the strong roots the Festival has in the town, engaging participation from very many local community and school groups, this is a great opportunity for your business to be part of that.

Wirksworth Festival is a charity run by a small part-time team and band of volunteers. We don’t receive any major external funding, instead relies on support from local businesses, small grants and in-kind support.

If you are interested in sponsoring the Festival, we would love to hear from you, please contact Carol Taylor, the Chair of the Festival Board.

This year we have received support from the following:

Technolog Ltd

Technolog have their head office in Wirksworth and this is the fourth consecutive year they have sponsored the Festival. “We are delighted to be able to sponsor Wirksworth Festival, many of the people who work at Technolog really enjoy the Festival and we are proud to be able to support such an important event in the East Midlands cultural calendar.”

Leek United Building Society

Scargill Mann
